Jiang Yu was busy in the mine all day, and when he returned to the mansion, it was already dark. When he returned to the mansion, he found Hongrou still waiting for him on the porch. Looking at her appearance, Jiang Yu knew that Hongrou should not have rested much.

"It's been a busy day, let's go rest. Jiang Yu looked at Hongrou, who came up to change his clothes, and said with such concern. Hongrou shook her head and said, "Hongrou doesn't dare to break the rules. ”

Jiang Yu listened, laughed, and said, "In my house, they are all loose, where are the rules?"

When Hongrou heard this, her face was crooked, and she said playfully: "But the master asked me to take care of things, so I set up rules, so I naturally have to lead by example." ”

"Okay, okay. Jiang Yu smiled, and said that there was nothing he could do with her.

Jiang Yu returned to the study, intending to continue to discuss the matter with Hongrou about the mine, but when Jiang Yu and Hongrou went to the study, suddenly, two swishing sounds pierced the night sky. Jiang Yu's eyes were fast, and he rushed forward, blocking in front of Hongrou, and the red flame Xiayi exploded instantly, and saw two black extremely fast black aura crashing into Jiang Yu's body protection qi, and was shocked and scattered in all directions.

"Since you're here, why hide your head and show your tail. Jiang Yu looked at the roof in the distance and said loudly. Before he finished speaking, he saw a person standing up on the dark roof, and from a distance, Jiang Yu could see that the person was covered with green gauze, and he was carrying a ghost head sickle with chains behind his back. The man's gaze and Jiang Yu's gaze matched, and both of them chuckled in their hearts.

There are bloody people!

Jiang Yu was born in the Liuyun Palace, and he was too familiar with killing and being killed. Just by looking at it, he could see that the guy on the roof was a man who was used to killing people, and he was very different from ordinary warriors. And the one on the roof, seeing Jiang Yu's gaze, couldn't help but move.

"Hong Rou, stand behind me, don't move!" Jiang Yu admonished, he knew that the person in front of him was a killer, and the biggest difference between a killer and a martial artist was that in order to achieve the goal, he could make any sacrifice, and he could also use any means! Jiang Yu didn't want Hong Rou to become the other party's weakness to restrain him, but he didn't dare to let Hong Rou leave him now, because he wasn't sure how many people the other party had come. Hongrou is now completely ineffective, and it is very dangerous if she leaves her protective range. And in doing so, it limited his range of movement and couldn't be too far away from Hongrou.

Speechless, there was nothing to say, after the killer stood up on the ridge, it was just a blink of an eye, and he disappeared on the ridge, Hongrou shouted, and saw that the killer had appeared behind her and Jiang Yu, Hongrou didn't see it, but Jiang Yu noticed it, reflexively drew his sword, and met the killer, but he couldn't fight three moves, and the killer immediately hid his body again, and disappeared without a trace.

"He's gone?" asked Jiang Yudao, who was wrapped in Red Flame Xia's clothes, Jiang Yu didn't speak, just shook his head. He knew very well that another big difference between a killer and an ordinary martial artist was the difference in moves. Ordinary warriors face to face, one-on-one, one move against another, no matter whether they win or lose, they are also above board. And killers usually use stabbing moves, to say that a long fight is a suicidal act, because usually killers do not rely on their own cultivation to win, but rely on surprise and agility, as well as a cool head.

Jiang Yu closed his eyes slightly, feeling the fluctuations of the aura around him, he could feel that the killer's aura was very weak, it could be said that he was an excellent person who hid his aura. Jiang Yu could feel the fluctuation of his aura, but it was a bit difficult to accurately determine the location of the other party, because the killer was moving in the night wind, and the speed was extremely fast, and if he wanted to determine his location, he could only rely on prediction, but it was extremely difficult.

A gentle night breeze blew on his face, and Jiang Yu was awe-inspired!

Here it is again! Jiang Yu swung his sword and swept it, and saw a piece of hair cut off in the air. And the other party's ghost head sickle had already swept down towards Jiang Yu. The ghost head sickle was very powerful, but it was a pity that it smashed on the Red Flame Xia Yi, which only made the Red Flame Xia Yi tremble, and it was actually damaged by most of it, but the Red Flame Xia Yi still withstood the blow. When the man saw that he had succeeded in a blow, his backhand was a sickle, and Jiang Yu's shot was like lightning, and he had already taken a step ahead of him, stabbing the blade obliquely and backstabbing the man's throat. If it is a martial artist, he will inevitably put away his sickle at this time, dodge or parry Jiang Yu's move. But this person didn't dodge or dodge, so he let the ghost head sickle smash Jiang Yu's head. Jiang Yu's sword was faster after all, the blade pierced through the throat and broke the bone, and the ghost head scythe with the killer's final blow smashed on the body protection qi that was quickly resurrected. After its owner died, the Devil's Head Scythe was shocked and flew into the sky. It took a long time before he fell down and smashed a big pit in front of Jiang Yu.

"It's a good fight, if I didn't have this hand, it would be really difficult. As Jiang Yu spoke, he took out the ghost-headed sickle. Jiang Yu didn't care, but Hongrou was scared enough, and the winner had already been decided in a few fights here. And at this time, more than a dozen small families rushed over when they heard the sound.

"You dragged people out and buried them. Jiang Yu instructed those little servants to deal with the dead killer. Jiang Yu has already determined that the killer should be just this one person. Because just now when he was fighting with that person, he had deliberately sold a flaw, if there was still a killer present, when he was flawed, he should have rushed out, but he didn't, it means that there is no killer nearby, or there is just a rookie who is not a threat.

"Hongrou, follow me. Jiang Yu asked those people to dispose of the corpse, and he took Hongrou to the study.

"Master, do you want to add some nursing homes, we still have this money. When she arrived at the study, Hongrou asked. Jiang Yu wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, there are many people in this mansion, after all, not everyone can protect themselves like himself. It may not be useful to add some nursing homes, but it can be used to strengthen courage. Jiang Yu nodded and said, "You can arrange this tomorrow." ”

"Hongrou, who do you think would have done it?"

"This ...... I can't say it. Hongrou bit her lip and said.

Jiang Yu looked at her, suddenly smiled, thought of his side, and said: "I guess Hong Rou must be thinking in her heart, as the city lord of Muyun City, he is a person from the Shenwu Sect, and the people of the Shenwu Sect are punished by everyone in the world, so whoever sends them is reasonable." Right?"

What Jiang Yu said, Hongrou couldn't help but nodded, but she quickly shook her head and said, "The master is different from them, the master has become the lord of this city, and he hasn't done anything bad." On the contrary, a lot of good things have been done. ”

Jiang Yu listened to her words, sighed, and said, "How can it be possible in the world to only do good things and not do any bad things." The good things I have done are, in the eyes of some people, bad things. If I get in the way of other people's money, they will naturally come and ask for my life. ”

Hearing what Jiang Yu said, Hongrou was taken aback and said, "What the master said is ......."

Jiang Yu nodded and said, "It's them, who else can there be?"

Hongrou thought for a moment and asked, "What does the master want to do? Do you want to go and seize their chamber of commerce?" or ......?"

Jiang Yuyi waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be like this, tomorrow you call a few little guys to send that ghost-headed sickle to the Bailian Chamber of Commerce, and say that it was a gift from me." ”

Hongrou listened to what Jiang Yu said, understood what he meant, and immediately responded.

The next day, the ghost head sickle was sent to the Bailian Chamber of Commerce, and in the afternoon, the president of the Bailian Chamber of Commerce came to Jiang Yu to ask for guilt, but the president who came was no longer yesterday's one. And yesterday's one, as well as the few people who came with him, had already hanged themselves, and their bodies had been sent to Jiang Yu's mansion. Jiang Yu also looked at the corpses and said that he committed suicide in fear of crime, but Jiang Yu could see that only the previous president, Zhu Yuan, committed suicide, and the others were obviously killed, and the murderer, needless to say, was a member of the Bailian Chamber of Commerce.

In the face of absolute power, it is foolish to be reasonable!

Jiang Yu sent the sickle over, and the meaning was very clear, that is, to force the Bailian Chamber of Commerce to make an attitude, whether he planned to hand over the person, or whether he planned to completely dismiss the Bailian Chamber of Commerce. Under such persecution, the Bailian Chamber of Commerce could only abandon the car to protect the handsome, and after internal discussions, Zhu Yuan died, while several other people accompanied the funeral, and took all the blame to ensure the existence of the Bailian Chamber of Commerce.

The Bailian Chamber of Commerce not only sent the bodies of Zhu Yuan and others, but also sent a large number of gifts, and it was only Zhu Yuan's personal opinion that he opposed Jiang Yu's increase in salary, and the Bailian Chamber of Commerce, Jiang Yu was the only one.

And Jiang Yu himself didn't have the idea of uprooting the Bailian Chamber of Commerce, after all, the Bailian Chamber of Commerce also affected Muyun City's income, and it was really all ruined, and he also suffered a loss, so he was willing to make a big thing small.

The new city lord was assassinated, but he did not die, and for a while, the rumor was boiling. But the explosiveness of this matter is far less than that of the spirit stone mine. In almost two days, almost everyone in Muyun City knew that Jiang Yu had discovered a very rich spirit stone mine in the south of the city. Everyone said that Jiang Yu had known that there was a spirit stone mine there, otherwise he would not have offered such a high salary.

A few days later, Jiang Yu was discussing matters with many deacons in the council hall, just these days, the spirit stone mine has begun to be mined, in terms of output, although it is not very high, but the price of the spirit stone is extremely high, and the simple production of these is enough to pay the annual tribute. Therefore, the matter discussed by Jiang Yu and these people is no longer a matter of dealing with the annual tribute, but a matter of how to use the excess money.

"The lord of the castle still lives in the old mansion, and in my opinion, it should be repaired. ”

"I don't think it's as good as building a bigger, new house. ”

"Yes, yes, we should have enough money. ”

"The city gate should also be repaired, it's too shabby. ”

......

It's all about spending money, and you and I say it. At this moment, I saw the five-colored clouds flickering in the distance, and there were seven people dressed in Shenwu Sect costumes, one by one, falling outside the council hall of Muyun City. The first person is the Demon Venerable. And behind her, there were six female disciples.

"City Lord Jiang, let's meet again. When the Demon Venerable spoke, he had already entered the council hall. As soon as they saw this female demon come in, many of the deacons of Muyun City did not dare to speak. Because they all know that this person is the last time he was angry, he beat Mr. Liang to a serious injury, and Mr. Liang has not recovered so far.

"I've seen Lord Demon Venerable. Jiang Yu just stood up and bowed slightly, while the other deacons all knelt down and saluted. And the demon venerable was also unceremoniously sat in the original Jiang Yu's position.

The Demon Venerable watched them salute, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, I'm too lazy to entangle with you." Jiang Yu, let me ask you, I asked you to investigate the cause of Gu Xiuwu's death and arrest the murderer who killed him, did you do it?"

Jiang Yu smiled when he heard this, and said: "I am naturally doing the things that Lord Demon Venerable explained, but I am suffering from too few people, too many things, and the cause of Gu City Lord's death is too bizarre, so it will be difficult to do it in the next moment, can you delay it for a few days?"

When the Demon Venerable heard this, he snorted coldly and said, "If you say delay, you will delay, then what my Demon Venerable said, isn't it all nonsense?"

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "Don't dare, it's just that I have always had one thing that I don't know." ”

"Speak!" the Demon Venerable asked.

Jiang Yu coughed lightly and said, "As far as I know, the overseas city lord, only the sect master, Jun Zhi, and other people's orders can be ignored. "At this time, Jiang Yu is no longer the Jiang Yu who has just taken office and doesn't understand anything, Jiang Yu naturally understands these rules and regulations, so he dares to talk to the demon venerable like this.

"Is there such a thing, how?" Demon Venerable seemed to be able to guess what Jiang Yu was going to say, and he couldn't help but feel a little weak. Seeing her admit it, Jiang Yu said, "That Demon Venerable Lord ordered me to find out the cause of Gu City Lord's death, presumably there must be a Jun Decree of the Sect Master, can you please take a look?"

In a word, the scene is condensed.

Demon Venerable was in a dilemma at this time, if she dared to say that she ordered Jiang Yu without a Jun will, Jiang Yu only needed a piece of impeachment and sent to the general altar, then it would be enough for Demon Venerable to drink a pot. And if there is, it can't come up with a purpose.

Jiang Yu looked at the embarrassed appearance of the Demon Venerable, smiled faintly, and said, "Could it be the personal request of the Demon Venerable, in this case, it is also natural to help you." ”

Hearing that Jiang Yu had already given himself the steps, the demon venerable went down the slope, waved his hand and said, "Okay, put aside the matter of personal please, I came here for other things." ”

"I don't know what Lord Demon Venerable wants to ask. Jiang Yu looked at the demon venerable confidently. And the Demon Venerable looked at his face and asked suspiciously, "Do you know why I came?"

Jiang Yu shook his head and said, "I don't know." Please also ask Lord Demon Venerable to exonerate. ”

Demon Venerable coughed, pretending to speak normally and asked, "I heard that there is a spirit stone mine in Muyun City, is there such a thing?"

It turned out that after Muyun City came out of the spirit stone mine, this matter, soon the people in other cities also knew, and the city lords of the other six cities, after knowing that Jiang Yu had produced the spirit stone mine, they were all envious and jealous, after all, for the city lords of the seven cities, in order to cope with the annual tribute, they were extremely short of money, and if they could obtain the spirit stone mine at this time, it was simply like timely rain. And it was precisely because of this envy and jealousy that several city lords in the six cities couldn't see it, so they reported it to the altar. The Holy Altar of the Shenwu Sect has always been very strict in its grasp of the Spirit Stone Mine, and when it heard that Muyun City had discovered the Spirit Stone Mine, and it was an extremely rich Spirit Stone Mine, the Holy Altar immediately sent the Demon Venerable to take over the Spirit Stone Mine.

Hearing this, Jiang Yu nodded, and said, "Yes, it's just that the yield is meager, and I'm afraid it won't be harvested for a few days." ”

When the demon venerable heard this, he sneered and said, "Can't you pick it for a few days? ”

"That's true, Lord Demon Venerable, please believe it. Jiang Yu responded.

Demon Venerable waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I don't care about this." As she spoke, she also stood up, holding the token in her hand, and said: "Sect Master Junzhi, Jiang Yu, the city lord of Muyun City, has made meritorious contributions to the spirit stone mine, and has been promoted to a second-class deacon, and he will reward five spiritual stones and 50,000 gold on the word "land." All other related people are promoted to the next level. ”

"Sect Master Xie!" a chorus of voices shouted. Except for Jiang Yu, the other deacons were all happy. The rules of the Shenwu Sect are strict, if you don't have great merit, if you want to climb up one level, it will be extremely difficult. And now following this new city lord, he has been promoted to one level so quickly, how unhappy.

As he spoke, he saw two female disciples walking up with two plates of things, one was a spirit stone and the other was a golden scroll. Jiang Yu looked at these two things, and said in his heart that this sect master is really stingy, he found the spirit stone mine, and he actually rewarded such a little thing, these five spirit stones are only the size of eggs, it is better to go to the mine to fish for a few spirit stones.

Listening to the Demon Venerable continued: "The Sect Master has an order, from now on, the Spirit Stone Mine of Muyun City will be owned by the Holy Altar, and the aftermath of the loss of Muyun City will be negotiated by the Demon Venerable and the City Lord of Muyun City, Jiang Yu. ”

"Lord Demon Venerable, what kind of negotiation method?" Jiang Yu said to Demon Venerable with a smile. When the demon venerable heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then his brows moved, and he said in his heart that this kid is so bold, and the negotiation that Jun Zhi said was actually just a kind word. If it were another city lord, it was estimated that there would only be enough work left to lie there and tremble, where would he have the audacity to come over and ask, how to negotiate.

"What do you want?" asked the Demon Venerable.

Jiang Yu thought for a while and said, "The Holy Altar will take away the spirit stone mine, I have no opinion." However, we have put a lot of effort into this spirit stone mine and invested a lot of money into it. ”

Hearing this, the Demon Venerable was furious and said, "You dare to bargain with the Holy Altar?"

Jiang Yu hurriedly shook his head and said, "Don't dare to do it below, it's not a bargain with the altar below, it's just that Lord Demon Venerable, you also know that now the seven cities of Huangzhou are extremely short of money after changing the annual tribute." We invested a lot of money in it, just so that we could pay the annual tribute, and now we have no return, and I don't know if the altar can be accommodating. ”

Demon Venerable smiled and said, "Accommodating, what kind of accommodating method do you want?"

Jiang Yu thought for a moment and said, "It's very simple, we hope that the altar can reduce our share of the annual tribute, if so, Jiang Yu can not be promoted by two levels." ”

Hearing Jiang Yu's words, Demon Venerable laughed a few times and said, "I have never seen a fool like you. Okay, I can relay your comments for you. Use your status in exchange for annual tribute. After saying this, the demon venerable couldn't stop laughing, as if he had heard something very funny. And the people behind Jiang Yu also felt sorry for Jiang Yu.
